Description
Delicious ground beef patties smothered in a creamy mushroom sauce, perfect for a comforting meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- ¾ cup saltine crackers (crushed (~23 crackers))
- ¾ cup milk
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt (divided)
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup flour (plus more if needed)
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 2 tablespoons salted butter
- 20 oz can cream of mushroom soup
- ¾ cup whole milk
- 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
- Chopped fresh parsley (optional garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, crushed saltine crackers, milk, 1 teaspoon of the salt, black pepper, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. Mix gently until just combined.
- Shape the mixture into 8 evenly sized oval patties.
- Place the flour in a shallow dish and stir in the remaining ½ teaspoon salt. Dredge each patty lightly in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess.
- Heat the oil and butter together in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the patties in batches and sear for 1-2 minutes per side, just until lightly golden. Do not cook through.
- Arrange the seared patties in a single layer in a 9×13 inch baking dish. Set aside.
- In a bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup, whole milk, and Dijon mustard until smooth.
- Pour the gravy evenly over the patties.
- Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the patties are cooked through and tender.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving, if desired.
Notes
- Ensure the patties are not overcrowded in the skillet while searing to achieve an even golden color.
- Use additional flour to dredge if patties are sticky.
